Start with the same size and product scope

For a useful single mattress price comparison in South Africa, begin with the selected variant, not a headline ‘from’ price. The standard single is 91 cm wide by 188 cm long; single XL is 91 × 200 cm. Check those dimensions against the frame before comparing rand amounts. [3]

This guide keeps mattress-only listings separate from base sets. It also treats a promotional price as a price displayed for that named product on the check date, not as a permanent price or a quality verdict. Delivery, stock and comfort suitability are not converted into a single score.

  • Match 91 × 188 cm with 91 × 188 cm; do not mix standard and single XL.
  • Confirm that the selected item is mattress only, not a base or complete set.
  • Record whether the amount is a promotion, and record the retailer’s stated date.

Examples of comparable standard-length listings

Mojo Beds’ single-mattress collection lists named standard-length, mattress-only variants including Dunlopillo Go Nino Firm at R2,499 promotional (previously R3,499), Dunlopillo Go Galaxy Firm at R2,649 (previously R4,299), and Forty Winks SleepTribe Bestie Firm at R2,849 (previously R3,799). The collection page labels these as standard length; the displayed amounts were checked on 3 November 2026. [1]

Mr Mattress’ page describes its single mattress-only table as 91 × 188 cm and gives Comfort Foam at R2,399, Active Foam at R3,399, Revive Memory Foam at R4,899 and Ultra 200 Memory Foam at R6,399. The page says these prices were checked on 18 October 2026, so they are dated retailer references rather than confirmed 3 November offers. [2]

What the figures do—and do not—show

The examples show how to compare a selected standard-size mattress-only variant, but they do not establish a like-for-like market minimum. The brands and constructions differ, Mojo’s amounts include promotions, and the retailer check dates are not aligned. A lower rand amount therefore does not prove better value, comfort or durability, and a higher one does not prove a quality winner.

Before checkout, reopen the exact product variant and verify its size, mattress-only status, current price, promotion terms, delivery charge and stock. If any of those fields change, update the comparison rather than substituting a base-set amount or an extra-length listing.
